FRED RICHARDS IS FREE Was Paroled From Prison Christmas Eve|

IS IN DECATUR Arrived Sunday Jo Make Home With Daughter Man Convicted of the]Murd«r of Amos Backesloe Twenty Years AgoParoled by Gjv. Durbin Richards, sentenced] 11 life imprisonment for the {supposed killing of Amos Bokestoe. arrived here early Sunday morning and remained with his daughter, Mrs. Ellwood Blazer, on South Fifth street until noon Sunday whenjhe went to Monroe to visit his brother, a few days. T'£He'will Jnake his heme with his daughter. He is feeling fairly well and gets abougby using a cane. He was interviewed by a representative] ofi*’ the Daily Democrat and said: “1 am glad to get back and I hold no grudge against]any one. ‘I believe I owe my release to Henry Colerick and Congressman Robison. I am innocent of] the crime against me and have served nearly twenty years for] another gman's crime. My term]began March] 5, 1885. I worked in the chair factory eight years was a trusty two years and for nine years have been head nurse in the hospital. I never had a discredit murk during my term. ” Fred Richards! is free. After twenty years in the Miohiagn City penitentiary he was paroled Christmas eve by Governor Durbin. A dispatch sent from Indianapolis said: ‘Four life convicts in the state prison at Michigan City walked]out of the institution tonight. One was pirdoned and three paroled. Warden Reid's instructions were to release them in time for ‘them to reach their former homes Christmas morning. Tae men released were George Fritts, senteiwed from Randolph county in 1901 for murder, who was pardoned; Samnel H. Price, sentenced from Lawrence county in 1893 for murder; John Cline, sentenced from Pika county in 1898 for murder, and Frederick Richards, sentenced from Allen county in 1884 for murder." The story of Richards is well known to most of our readers. Twenty years ago Amos Bockestoe, a well known farmer living near here, was murdered. His home was broken into ■during the night by two burglars 'who ransacked the house. Bockes'toe heard them and raised up in 'bed ; as he did so he was shot through the head, killing him instantly. Richards and a man named Charley Werst were oharged with the crime. Richards was tried at Fort Wayne ana narrowly escaped the death penalty. Werst was tried here, found guilty, and sentenced for life. He was paroled a few years ago and died soon after of consumption. The men were found guilty on the evidence of a ten-year-old boy who lived with Richards. The lawyers both for the state and defense have always been doubtful as to the guilt of either man. Werst proclaimed his innocence on his death bed,' and

we ’believe he suffered Immediately after the]crime public indignation ran high, ] and after Richards had been placed in jail a mob was formed'£to lynch him. He was taken from the the old fair grounds, a rope placed about his neck, but he declared his * innocence so strongly that cooler heads finally controlled the mob and the prisoner was then taken to Fort Wayne where he was Kept until aken to prison. He was tried twice, the first jury sentencing him to death. John T. France, then prose cuting attorney of this district, S Henry Colerick, o f Fort Wayne, represented the state, and Rich ards was defended by Judge Morris and Robert Stratton. The trial was before Judge Sinclair, but when a new trial was allowedja change of ven uewas taken and Judge O'Rourke heard the case, the second trial resulting in a life sentence. Many e people believe Richards innocent - and few believe he really did the shooting, even if he was conceotI ed with the affair in any way. - Henry Colerick, who assisted in the prosecution said when told of the pardon: “Although 1 helped to t prosecute him. I have felt j that there is a doubt in the case and sometimes I have J thought Fred Richards was im- ? prisoned for another man's crime. y Consequently, I am glud to hear that he has been paroled.” Fred is ’ now 64 years old and broken ina health. His parole did not cornea r as result of efforts of his friends, but more upon the recommenda■J tion of the prison authorities it is a said. As an employe in the hose pital for many years, the old man showed the greatest devotion to k his duty, and the story of his con a duct aroused r the interest of the I members of the Board of Pardons and of Governor Durbin. Charles •' Werst, who was convicted with s Richards, was pardoned by Gov. ernor Mount in 1897. Unless they violate their paroles the men will ’ never be returned to prison. The 3 boy whose evidence convicted Richj ards and Werst was] named Davis Smith. He was also arrested, but l after turning state’s evidence he ' was promised lieniency. fie was given a short trial here before E. G. Coverdale and acquitted.

FROM BRYAN'S COMMONER. The gentlemen who complain that presidential campaigns unsettle business are finding difficulty in securing the proof this year. Republican leaders are explaining by saying that Mr. Roosevelt wrote those books Tong years before he ever entertained an idea of running for the presidency. Speaker Cannon’s touching reference to "Pilgrim's Progress” seems to indicate that Uncle Joe has arrived at the "Slough of Despond” stage of the campaign. Os course Statistician Wright will not overlook the fact that on the day that dressed beef in Chicago went up 2 cents a pound the price of Leer cams down $2.50 a barrel. The outlook in Indiana and New York is such that Mr. Addicks grows more confident of being able to fix up a deal for Delaware with the mana gers of Mr. Roosevelt’s campaign. Os course those disgruntled Filipinos must understand tnat the President s expressed desire for peace has no connection with those who object to the g. o. p. policy of imperialism. ■“From Lincoln to Roosevelt” is the title of a pamphlet just issued by the Republican national committee. The pamphlet is a short one, but the distance covered is immense, and down hill all the way. It is reported that Mr. Cortelyou will succeed Mr. Payne as postmaster general. Mr. Cortelyou is much mere successful as a successor than he was as a public official charged with the duty of investigating and prosecuting illegal trusts and combinations. The Topeka Herald says that “every strike settled before election is a blow to Democratic hopes of success. How about the packinghouse strike? The g. o. p. is welcome to all it can make out of that. Secretary Shaw couldn’t see a sll.000,000 deficit with a microscope, but he managed to see the little surplus of $6,000,000 with his naked eye at a distance of 1,800 miles. The g. o. p. optics always were in need of a firstclass oculist’s services. It is noticeable that the papers clamoring loudest for the policy of "teaching the people self-government" are also loudest in their support of the party whose policy is to let the trusts do all the governing in this country. A POPULIST’S TRIBUTE. William V. Allen, former United States senator from Nebraska, has given out a letter in which, whi’e maintaining that he is still a Populist, he pays a high tribute to Judge Parker. He says he has studied Parker’s legal opinions and has found him to be clear on the trust proposition and that he has been consistent throughout his judicial career, being able, conscientious and fearless. Senator Allen concludes his letter thus: “Thus it will be seen that, whatever may be said of Judge Parker’s polti cal belief in the gold standard, his judicial opinion of the authority of the government to restrain monopolies and of the jurisdiction of the courts to enforce anti-trust legislation is strong. Being the chief judge of the highest judicial tribunal of a state in which monopolies have their habitat. Judge Parker nrnst possess a strong individuality and a* pleasing personality to win the confidence of the people to the extent of Intrusting him to administer this office. “A careful reading of other judicial utterances of Judge Parker in a great variety of cases which came before the court of which he was the presiding judge clearly demonstrates his capacity and fitness for judicial work. His writings are facile, clear, perspicuous. and his reasoning of undoubted soundness and along the lines of the best judicial thought of the country on the trust question. They are marked by method, candor and care, which manifest that while he is conservative and therefore safe, he as at the same time fearless in the discharge of duty. “Such a man. other things equal, is much preferable for an exalted and responsible public position to one who Is a lover of guns and martial airs and given over to tinsel and spectacular display.” No Constitution There. Associate Justice David J. Brewer of the United States supreme court caused a sensation in the International Congress of Lawyers and Jurists at the World’s Fair by saying regard lag the Philippines: "The purchase which this great exposition commemorates was not the result of conquest and came not as the result of war. A lawyer, not a soldier. made the transfer. The glory of the transfer is one of the laurels of our profession. “You can see twenty acres of Philippine life at the World’s Fair, but you cannot see a square rod of the constitution. Perhaps it is because it has been judicially declared that there ia no connection between the two.” John W. Foster, former Secretary of State, who ? ollowed Justice Brewer declared that the navy is too big. He said he hoped that the Secretary of the Navy had not made the statement attributed to him. that he wished to make the navy of the United States equal to the greatest. I went ap and down your land font years ago as your candidate and it every speech I made I asserted that the question of imperialism was more Important than the money quest! m. —William Jennings Brya*.

, GIVES BELIEF QUICKLY. Regular Use of Nhymei Cures Most Stubborn Case of Catarrh. ■ No other medicine gives such ' prompt relief as Hyomei in the treat , meat of catarrh. The first breath of the remedy soothes and heals the irritated and 1 smarting air passage, and the regular use fora few days or weeks will cure the most stubborn ease. Some of the reports of those who have been cured of catarrh by Hyomei read like miracles. John S. Gray, of Redmond Hills Pa., hrites: “I am 82 years old and have been a sufferer with catarrh in the head for 25 or 30 years. I have doctored with many specialists and they all told me that the disease was incurable sn account of tuy age. After using Hyomei a short time I was greatly benefitted and can now svy that lam entirely cured. It has been six months since I stopped using the remedy and I still remain cured. The complete Hyomei outfit costs but SI.OO, consisting of an inhaler, dropper and sufficient Hyomei to last several weeks. This will effect a cure in ordinary cases, but for chronic and deep seated cases of catarrh, longer use may be necessary, and then extra bottles of Hyomei can be obtained for 50c. Probably the strongest evidence that can ba offered as to the powers of Hyom-i to cure catarrh is the fact that the Holthouse Drug Co. will agreee to refund the money if you say that Hyomei has not helped you. An authority says a ton of apples takes cnly sixty cents worth of fertility. Apples ought to be a very profitable crop at that rate, when compared with the fact that a ton of hay which sells for, say 10, removes about $1 worth of fertility from the soil. ...Legal Advertising...
